Reform and renewal for Heilongjiang province

During the 16th China International Fair for Investment and Trade, Northeast China's Heilongjiang province has been expected to steal the limelight thanks to its reform and renewal efforts.

Ample investment opportunities have been brewed in its plans in economic reform over the next five years as it faces the challenge of diminishing natural resources, said a top official.

To replace resource-intensive industries, the provincial government will emphasize new industries of strategic importance, Heilongjiang Party Secretary Ji Bingxuan said.
